So my friend sent me this email.  Its seems kinda like a fake email.  Just seems to set up for me, what do you guys think?

I think anyone clicking on that link better run Adaware.  Maybe a few other tools too.  If your security is set correctly, you should not see much of anything at all and get a big warning about the ActiveX control it wants to run.  Always a clue a site has potential for being a bad guy.

Then there is the usual tracking cookies.  Balh, blah, blah.

That's my 2 cents on the topic.

Thanks skuzzy.  Like I said I got this from a friend, so Adaware is running now.

Just because it comes from a friend does not mean it is ok. Worms are spread that way along with other evil items. Your friend might not even know it sent you anything.
